Answer
The correct answer is a. They can survive in the presence or absence of oxygen.
Facultative anaerobes are organisms that can survive and grow in both the presence and absence of oxygen. They can use oxygen for aerobic respiration when it is available, but can switch to anaerobic processes like fermentation when oxygen is not available.
